At least seven people were killed Sunday when a gunman opened fire at a Sikh temple near Milwaukee, authorities said. The suspected shooter was later killed in exchange of gunfire with police and is counted among the dead. Earlier unconfirmed reports suggested there were multiple shooters. Police were called to the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin in the Milwaukee suburb of Oak Creek on Sunday morning, when witnesses said several dozen people had gathered for prayers.

What's the point of gun control laws when the freaking gov't is arming the criminals ? Didn't Obama send guns to Mexican Drug Cartels with operation "Fast and Furious". G. Bush, Clinton, Regan, had a similiar plans of arming criminals. I don't care what anyone says, the U.N. wants the 'state' to be the only entity to use weapons. U.N. wants to stop Americans from owning guns and Remember, Obama's Panetta stated that the Authority of UN trumps the U.S. Congress.

Everyone that has posted comments about right wing, republicans, fox news gun lovers etc. is an idiot. This happened because of a phsyco who wanted kill innocent people. The gun did not kill the people, The man did, If someone would have been carrying, the situation could have been avoided. Common Sense.

my best friend's step-mother earned $21151 past week. she has been working on the laptop and bought a $514600 condo. All she did was get lucky and put into action the clues shown on this web site http://www.lazycash49.com

Arming everyone won't deter these mass murdering nutjobs. They expect to get shot and killed anyway, but want to take as many ppl with them as possible. Arming everyone might lessen the amount of people an attacker can kill at that moment, but if an attacker knows everyone is armed they will likely utilise more efficient attack methods such as homemade bombs and gas etc. It is a difficult thing to stop people from going mental with a weapon. You can only react once the attack already started. The average guy that owns a gun today might be the mass murderer on tv tomorrow. Currently there is no actual effective ways to stop these type of mass attacks. The reason behind the attacks could be anything from religion, racism, politics, revenge, crime of passion, greed, fame, paranoia to just plain being out of touch with reality. Banning religion or guns won't make much difference since religion is not the only reason for mass killing and guns are not the only method. Perhaps more cops are needed at street level for better crime prevention, visible policing and reaction to crimes in progress.

A right wing, racist, skin-head, ex-military white guy murdered six innocent people and now every white right wing gun-loving nutjob in our country is trying to act as though their bigotry, ignorance and hatred haven't fueled this crime.

The right wing media will try to 'complicate' this issue with all sorts of lies and disinformation, but the truth still exists. Conservative bigotry and hatred are destroying America bit by bit.

The problem why stuff like this keeps happening is we focus on the shooters. The shooters don't deserve attention. Celebrity status. And focus less on the victims. It's about the victims at this point. The shooters don't need to be studied. They're doing it for some sick glory. They need to be ignored and focus on the actual victims and their stories. Who would shoot up a place full of innocent people. If they knew they wouldn't get anything but jail.

Is there more to this story? Because some of these comments I see written here are stating things that aren't in the story above..i.e....the shooter said he was a christian. Got a LOT of assumptions going on here on this board.

Eventually there will be gun control. Eventually, there will be one NRA-gunnut-supported mass murder too many. People will have had enough. And when that happens, the NRA will not be able to buy off congress.

Lets face it. The gun situation in this country is to far gone and way to many have been mass produced. Criminals will have guns wether legal or not. (Thats why they are criminals duh!!) At this point i recomend everyone pack at least a small pistol. If this was the case in Wisconsin, or Colorodo Mr. Red head would of been swiss cheese after about 1 shot.

While the Soviets severely persecuted all religious denominations, I believe the only country that has actually outlawed religious expression was Enver Hoxha's Albania, where atheism was enforced with an iron fist.

I wonder how many more will have to die before some strict gun control measures will be passed. I know that "The right to bear arms" is one of the fundamental rights of US citizens, but I'm sure the forefathers did not envision assault weapons and hand grenades when they thought of weapons as a basic right.

More gun control equals more crime. Gun control is not about guns its about control. Criminals will always be able to get guns. Gun control will just make it hard for law abiding citizens to get firearms. Guns are used to defend our homes and our country from a tyrannical government. Thats why we have the second ammendment. You will never be able to take away the second ammendment.

Sad how people and the media don't seem to notice that almost all these tragic shootings take place in so-called 'weapons-free zones', where law-abiding citizens are not allowed to even posses firearms. Apparently the bad guys figured this out rather quickly. Banning the inert instrument won't stop these whackos, just force them to use even more extreme methods.

In the Founders times, "arms" were limited to muskets, swords and canons. These days, "arms" include nuclear devices, bazookas, dynamite, assault weapons, grenades, drones...you name it. Should people have a constitutiional "right" to bear those arms?
